Alex Eala made an emphatic start to her National Bank Open campaign, defeating American Alycia Parks in three sets, 6-1, 4-6, 6-2, at Sobeys Stadium in Toronto, Canada.
The 21-year-old Filipina came out firing, dominating the opening set with aggressive baseline play and pinpoint shot-making. Parks responded in the second set to level the match, but Eala stayed composed and raised her level when it mattered most, taking control of the deciding set to secure a convincing victory.
The win was especially meaningful as it avenged a previous loss to Parks, highlighting Eala’s continued growth, resilience, and maturity on the WTA Tour. Her ability to bounce back under pressure once again proved why she is one of the brightest young stars in women’s tennis.
Fresh off her recent breakthrough performances, Eala carries plenty of momentum into the next round as she pursues another deep run and keeps her hopes alive for back-to-back WTA titles.
With every victory, Alex Eala continues to inspire millions of Filipinos around the world, proving that hard work, discipline, and belief can compete with the very best on the global stage.
Congratulations, Alex Eala! 🇵🇭
The journey continues, and an entire nation is proudly cheering you on.
